This is a relatively simple matter with tables, although it does involve a lot of waste in creating the tables.

Over the past month, I have given myself am intensive course in CSS. I've bought and studied the books, and I have spent many hours researching on the web, however, neither in the books nor on the web, can I find a way to replicate this design via style sheets.

However if you want the images vertically aligned within each row then the only way of doing so would be to find the height of each image and then set top to 50% and a negative margin of half the image height to draw it vertically central. The image would need to be absolutely placed for this to display correctly.

It seems a lot of work for such a small advantage that if it were up to me I'd leave them top aligned as in the example.

Why not just use tables for layout in this instance as the images/text are almost like like data entries. I have found that using CSS for something like this definitely complicates matters, especially when the window and/or font is resized. NN 4 will also most likely choke on the floats making the page unreadable.

Thank you

Thank you for all of the replies.

Paul's solution is perfect. And I would implement it in a heartbeat if it was not of NN4. I will see if I can find a work around.

As for keeping the tables vs switch over to CSS. I will keep the tables if I must, but because of the decreased efficieny and the increaded headaches with working with the tables I would perfer to get rid of them. (thnaks for the kind words on the design, Earther.
